JOE BIBB BRILLIANT CHICAGO WHIP EDITOR GETS ENDORSEMENT A CHICAGO EDITOR AND BEN DAVIS OPPOSE It is reported that Joseph D. Bibb, of Chicago, is an applicant for the job made vacant by the death of Phil H. Brown, who was commissioner of Conciliation in the Department of Labor. The candidacy of Mr. Bibb is said to be sponsored by Senator Medill McCormack of Illinois.
Mr. Bibb is editor of the Chicago Whip, and is regarded as one of the ablest editorial writers in the newspaper game of the race. Should he be successful in "tieing up" with the National administration in the form of a job it will be generally regarded as a victory for the progressive and the passing of the "Uncle Tom's" Class who have won their way by the route of the hat-in-the-hand, supplemented with scraping and bowing.
The Following Comes From [Chicago?]
Mr. Bibb has secured the endorsement of the Senators McKinley and McCarmack with Congressman Madden heartily agreeing. All the notable politicians of Chicago's famed second ward as well as the white boss, Mr. George Harding, have urged his elevation to the national post, while several colored Chicagoans prominent politically and ecclesiastically, have called on President Coolidge and Secretary Slemp in behalf of the young editor who wields so trenchant a pen and delivers soap box orations so effectively, that he has won his spurs in the windy city. In fact it can be said without fear of successful contradiction that the administration would have been glad to see Mr. Bibb in the post. Illinois has been slighted in so far as national political recognition is concerned. Not a single outstanding appiontment can be checked up to the two powerful U. S. senators from the state of which Chicago is a part. Mr. Bibb from their viewpoint would make a suitable and satisfactory appointee.
But the obstacle in the woodpile is said to be the veto of a powerful publisher in the same city who says the trenchant quill wielder "shall not pass." This dictum is said to have literally stirred up the very duce.
Editor Ben Davis In Vigorous Opposition
The opposition of Editor Ben J. Davis of the Atlanta Independent, and leading Georgia Republican is given in part as appeared in the last issue of the Independent.
"Those who seek party reward at the hands of a political party, ought to have made a record of supporting the party in its principles and policies. Men who fight party organization all the time, have no claim on party odgainazation for reward, and should not seek reward at the hands of the party that they have fought consistently and persistently all the years of their lives.
We believe in party regularity and party organization, and we have no patience either with the man who seeks emoluments from the party he has fought, or the party who compromises principle by offering a man who has fought its policies a job to hush him up. The man who seeks party reward as pay for his silence and accepts a place at the hands of the party he has fought, and thereafter holds his peace or supports the party, cannot escape the ignominy of having "sold out."
We believe that party emoluments belong to the faithful, and not to those who have lambasted the party, questioned its itnegrity, slandered its good name and have voted another party's ticket to emphasize his opposition to the party at whose hands he now seeks reward.
We understand that Editor Joe Bibb of the Chicago Whip, is a candidate to succeed the late and lamented Phil H. Brown as Commissioner of Conciliation.
There is no party reason why he should succeed to the place or ask the Republican party, locally or nationally, for party reward. This is a free country where men are permitted to speak independently, expressing their views against men and measures, but in doing so, they take responsibility for their stewardship.
Joe Bibb has consistently fought the recognized Republican organization from the ward-heeler to the President of the United States. He is always against the organization's candidate. In the Second Ward, he fought Aldermen Anderson and Jackson to the bitter end--he accused them of every crime against the moral decalogue, from larceny to murder. He fought the Thompson administration, and accused it of every conceivable crime against the public morals that he was capable of thinking of. Now if Senator Medill McCormack and the Honorable Oscar DePriest are backing Mr. Bibb's candidacy, we can conceive of no reason these two stalwart politicians should support Mr. Bibb [except?] for the purpose of shutting his mouth. He has been against them in every campaign, and his opposition, probably is worth more to the party than his support. He supported the Democratic ticket in the last campaign, and if these leaders are supporting Mr. Bibb for Brown's place, we are at a loss to understand their reason for doing so."
